I know that tomorrow is Valentine's Day and for a guy who doesn't have a sweetheart or is in a real loving mood. I would decide write about my only love and that is for sports. People who know me know my passion for it and how I would like to be a part of it someday. So, last weekend I decided to go the Midwest Sports Autograph Show at the Overland Park Trade Center. They do this show once every 4 or 5 years. Sure, they have a lot vendors out there selling and buying your sports memorabilia. However, they had a lot of current and former NFL and college players who were Heisman trophy winners, Superbowl champs, MVP's just to name a few. The first person I got to meet was this guy below Len Dawson QB for SB IV champion K.C. Chiefs.
Len happen to see that I was wearing my Bears jersey of Brian Urlacher and he ask me who #54 was and I told him it was Brian Urlacher. He said. "Linebacker, yeah I had a linebacker who beat the crap out of me and his name was Dick Butkis." (another bears linebacker). Hilarious Len always keeping real cool.
Len wasn't the only former player check out the pics below
Marcus Allen former chiefs RB
Jerry Rice..The best WR period.
Emmitt Smith great RB for the cowboys broke my favorite player's rushing record
Jamaal Charles current chiefs RB....got photobomb by jerry rice...dang I wish I would have had my camera for that moment.
Good times at the show
